I did both in my recipe. I used the pineapple juice that was in the can, and then added evaporated milk, instead of using water for the cake milk. I liked the pineapple flavor in the cake, but the milk helped to make it more moist.

I agree with swapping out the water/pineapple juice mixture for evaportated milk. I made this recipe and felt that the cake itself was not moist enough. I bought the pineapple supreme cake mix and have decided that next time I will buy the yellow/ butter mix in addition to the evaporated milk. Maybe add a teaspoon of vanilla to cake batter. I would also recommend reducing the oven heat to 3:25 when it has been baking for 3/4 of the time. These are just some suggestions. This is a great recipe but it could use a few improvements to make it phenomenial. Hope this helps!

Hello all. Been making this cake for many years now. Cast iron is best. However, if you really want a taste sensation, use lemon flavored cake mix and canned evaporated milk (Milnot works great) instead of water. It turns out way moist and plumps up more than with water. Do save the pineapple juice too and use when cooking candied sweet potatoes. Yum, yum.

Yum Yum I made some changes it worked out really well I used a 9″ springform pan. Also used an Orange supreme cake mix. And used crushed pineapple instead of rings , drained . FYI if you drain a can of crushed pineapple it equals exactly 1 1/3 cup of juice

Made the best looking pineapple upside down cake this evening. It’s for church tomorrow, having a hard time not taking a bite now. I did lick the batter bowl and scrapped clean the pan after I turned it out. Yummy!
